Yet Another Excuse To Wimp Out During Workout!

Wahoo for Saturday and Wahoo for the rain that made for a quick 30 minute swim workout this morning. I haven't swam since Tuesday when I did my 1,225 (12/25) Christmas Workout. Which by the way is now back from the black hole of Garmin Connect. I noticed when syncing my watch this morning that the workout was now up. Which is a good thing. But I've been busy teaching spinning all week with 3 classes on Wednesday and 2 classes on Thursday. Friday I don't teach but work early in the morning so I use that as my default recovery day.
I say recovery day but I think I told someone I'd go to a class next Friday at 5:45am. Ugh, well see about that! As for today's swim...

I was really just pushing my way in those 300's. I'm really out of swim shape so by the last one I was feeling a bit sore and fatigued. I really gotta snap out of my laziness when it comes to swimming. I did a 50 easy and called it a day. Then the storm hit and everyone had to get out anyways.
With one more swim for the month I'm at 9.22 miles (=16,225 yards, =14,836 meters). So my goal for tomorrow is to do at least 3,775 yards to get to the 20K mark for the month. I'll get to the pool a bit before the gang and swim a bit on my own.
